For #FolkyFriday our heroine is a wise old woman.

With a sieve and candle she mimicked the rising sun, tricking the devil into thinking night was over and interrupting efforts to flood the area.

Every seven years in Alfriston, the ghost of a white dog was said to appear on White Way, thought to be Thomas Chowne's pet.

Chowne was killed by robbers and when his bones were found and moved to St Andrews churchyard, sightings of the ghostly dog ceased.

The barley grain should die
